How to make WAY better hot cocoa than you can buy!
Start with really good gourmet cocoa. (The stores don't do that!) Then make it from scratch. And then add syrups to really amp it up!
It's going to be way better--even if you skip the syrups. Why? Because you can use better cocoa and more of it--rich and dark, milk chocolate, and more. And you're going to make it with fresh milk, not nonfat dry milk.
In a medium pan, combine 1/2 cup sugar and 1/3 cup unsweetened high quality cocoa powder with a whisk until it is uniformly mixed. Add 1 cup milk and whisk until combined. Cook and stir over medium heat just until it starts to boil. Gradually add another 3 ½ cups milk while whisking. Heat through until hot but not boiling. Add a teaspoon of optional vanilla.
Really good cocoa is much richer and darker than store brands. If you want a smoother cocoa, use more milk. |
